Instructions

  • First, you grab your food processor and toss in the crumbled feta cheese. That’s the start of your creamy base. Then add in the Greek yogurt and don't forget the extra-virgin olive oil. It’s gonna make your dip silky smooth.
  • Next up is the lemon juice. Fresh squeezed is best if you got it nearby. It brightens everything right up. Then toss in the garlic clove whole or chopped, whatever works for your blender speed.
  • Hit blend and watch it whirl. You'll notice it come together kinda creamy and thick. Stop and scrape down the sides if you need to get every last bit mixed in. Don’t rush this part, you want it smooth but not runny.
  • When it looks just right, transfer that whipped feta into a serving bowl. Then drizzle a little more olive oil on top. That shine and richness is what you wanna see. Sprinkle your Aleppo pepper or red pepper flakes right on that olive oil drizzle. Finally, toss on your fresh parsley for a little green pop.
  • Gather your pita bread, baguette slices, or fresh veggies. Serve it right away or cover it up until hungry time. You’ll notice this dip pairs so good with everything crispy or soft. Easy to pull off but looks like you been at it all day.
